I am sure regular riders have already seen Devon at Salesforce in the PM and at HTC in the AM, supporting drivers, passing out information, and helping everyone get where they need to be.
Introcucing our WestCAT Ambassador. Supporting our service and our riders.

Weekend Transit ridership has always intrigued me. While we have less service on the street, so many people still rely on it, but how do we encourage more people to make the choice to ride transit on the weekend?
Offer free rides.

Wow, Lynx riders are really taking advantage of free trips into SF. Today, ridership has reached its highest level since February 2020. Every trip out of SF is above capacity.
We are looking to add service and capacity. We appreciate you, Lynx riders.
